MAN

MAN is an expansion of gender and language, a journey of physical transformation through the wilderness of pregnancy, echoed by the sole remaining recording of Virginia Woolf’s voice.

The film is a truly experimental expression of form – hand-processed super 8mm film, combined with watercolour-negative animation; time-lapse of a pregnancy shot frame by frame, day by day; bookended by a series of self-portraits, where the filmmaker is satirizing her own use of particular attire, generally read as masculine, becoming revelatory when posed in the context of the pregnant body.
